| Organic growth and exploitation of synergies |
• In the hospital segment, the recruitment of new doctors, the development of medical centers and the realisation of synergies across the division will boost revenue and profitability • The complete renovation of the Hotel Eden au Lac and the refurbishment of the last rooms at the Grand Hotel Victoria-Jungfrau are expected to lead to significantly higher room rates as well as food and beverage revenue |
|---|---|
| Turn-around of restructuring hospital entities |
• Important measures are taken on a revenue and cost side to achieve the turnaround of the last restructuring entities in Swiss Medical Network • The first months of 2018 give promising indications that this target will be achieved in the current year |
| Reduction of operating costs | • The outsourcing of IT services and the continuous standardisation and automatisation of the Group's operating processes already led to significant cost savings • Further to these measures, a specific cost reduction program was set in place which is expected to result in savings of around CHF 15m in 2018 |
• Based on an unchanged portfolio, AEVIS VICTORIA expects to realise single digit revenue growth and to significantly improve profitability in the current business year 2018 by pursuing the initiated cost reduction programs
